A reed, single or double, is common to all woodwinds except the Flute and recorder. The thing that differentiates the flutes is that they are of two types transverse and end blown. This makes the endblown flute the same as the recorder (or whistle). The unique woodwind is therefore the transverse flute as it has an opening that the player blows across not through. The common feature of the other woodwinds is a mouthpiece.
